20 Figure 19 Methodology The Kaiser Family Foundation/New York Times Survey of Chicago Residents was conducted April 21- May 3, 2016, among a random digit dial (RDD) telephone sample of 1,123 adults ages 18 and older residing in the City of Chicago, Illinois (note: persons without a telephone could not be included in the random selection process). Computer-assisted telephone interviews conducted by landline (249) and cell phone (874, including 616 who had no landline telephone) were carried out in English and Spanish, according to the preference of the respondent. SSRS conducted sampling, interviewing, and tabulation for the survey. The New York Times and Kaiser Family Foundation contributed financing for the survey, and teams from both organizations worked together to develop the questionnaire and analyze the data. Each organization is solely responsible for its content. To ensure there were enough respondents to capture the views and experiences of Blacks and Hispanics, the full sample includes additional interviews with randomly selected Black and Hispanic residents (commonly referred to as an oversample ), although results for all groups have been adjusted to reflect their actual population distribution (see weighting description below). To oversample Blacks and Hispanics, in addition to general population respondents reached by RDD landline or cell phone, both phone sampling frames also targeted areas with larger shares of Hispanic or Black residents. In addition, 59 respondents were reached by calling back Chicago phone numbers where respondents to previous SSRS surveys indicated they were either Black, Hispanic, or White. Both the RDD landline and cell phone samples used for this study were randomly generated through Marketing Systems Group s GENESYS sampling system, with an overlapping frame design. Within each landline household one adult was designated by a random procedure to be the respondent for the survey. Cell phone interviews were conducted with the person who answered the phone. A multi-stage weighting process was applied to ensure an accurate representation of the City of Chicago adult population. The first stage of weighting involved corrections for sample design, including a correction for the oversampling of telephone exchanges known to have higher incidences of Blacks and Hispanics, the likelihood of non-response for the re-contacted sample, and an adjustment to account for the fact that respondents with both a landline and cell phone have a higher probability of selection. In addition, the combined landline and cell phone sample was weighted to match estimates for the Chicago population using data from the Census Bureau s 2014 American Community Survey (ACS) on sex, age, education, race, Hispanic origin, nativity (for Hispanics only); a distribution of phone use was estimated based on the CDC s National Health Interview Survey (NHIS). All statistical tests of significance account for the effect of weighting. The margin of sampling error including the design effect for the full sample is plus or minus 4 percentage points. Numbers of respondents and margins of sampling error for key subgroups are shown in the table below. For results based on other subgroups, the margin of sampling error may be higher. Sample sizes and margins of sampling error for other subgroups are available by request. Note that sampling error is only one of many potential sources of error in this or any other public opinion poll.
